The Lac de Lessy, around which marmots and ibex make their home, is a stunning site at an altitude of 1733 m in the village of Le Petit-Bornand Glières-Val-de-Borne. It is one of the most beautiful walks in the Bornes-Aravis area.

Access: From the Mairie of Le Petit-Bornand, take the Puze road towards Paradis, then follow signs to Paradis.

Description:
At the car park, take the path in the direction of "Lac de Lessy" and follow the track through the forest. Just in front of the Chalet du Lainvouet (last chalet), turn left in the direction of Lac de Lessy, then walk over the area of rocks. The path continues until it reaches a little valley of fallen rocks. The path crosses this and takes you to a section that is a little more difficult, from where you can use the ladder to reach the crest that overlooks the Mayse valley.
Continue straight on along the mountainside towards the Col de la Forclaz from where you can spot the Lac de Lessy.
Walk down to the chalets and the Lessy refuge.
You can walk round the Lac de Lessy.
Your return is by the same path.
Herding dogs are present in the vicinity of the lake from the beginning of July to the end of September, they must be approached with great caution and certain instructions must be respected (see video link for explanation). Dogs must be kept on a lead.
